I was a very long time TurboTax user until a few years ago when Intuit tried to pull a fast one with their pricing structure. I switched to H&R Block and haven't looked back. I found it just as easy to use and capable as TurboTax and competitively priced. It's my go to tax software now.
Pros: Easy to install, Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Fast
I have used H&R Block for several years and am very pleased with them. The instructions are easy to follow but if there is a question they direct you to where you can find an answer. Will use then again.
Pros: Easy to install, Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import, Fast
Have used H&R software for many, many years with little to no issues. This year, one minor problem, the software would not update under Windows Vista 64 bit. Had to use my Windows 7 laptop and copy the program directory to my Windows Vista desktop. A little bit of a hassle, but not a major problem. The tax software has always been perfect.
Pros: Easy to fix issues, Easy to prepare, Easy to import, Fast
